Dwarf Green Podded Bush Beans 
The best soil is well-manured sandy loam but 
good crops are produced on the average garden soil. 
After the ground is thoroughly warm (usually after 
May 1st) sow at intervals of two weeks to secure a 
succession thruout the summer. Plant four inches 
apart in rows two feet apart. Cover firmly and 
cultivate often.

Burpee’s Stringless—Early, hardy, vigorous and 
productive. Pods five inches long, thick, round 
and creasebacked, dark green, stringless and 
brittle, excellent flavor. One of the most popular 
market gardeners sorts. 58 days. 
Bountiful —The best of the flat-podded stringless 
varieties. The pods are 6 to 7 inches long, thick, 
flat and slightly curved, stringless and with little 
fiber. In color they are a light green, very at¬ 
tractive and of high flavor and quality. 60 days. 
Full Measure—Fine stringless, early, medium 
reen bean. Pods straight, six inches long, very 
eshy, round, creasebacked with slight depres¬ 
sions around the bean. 63 days. 
Tendergreen — A new variety of very superior 
quality. The strong vigorous plants bear at¬ 
tractive light green pods 7 inches long which are 
round, meaty and tender and are absolutely 
stringless. Tendergreen is very early, and pro¬ 
lific, and we consider it one of the most desirable 
all purpose varieties. 
Black Valentine Stringless — This splendid new 
variety possesses all the desirable qualities of the 
old type, deep glossy green color, blight resistance, 
earliness and productivity, but is not quite so 
rounded and is absolutely stringless. This is a 
superb strain of excellent quality. 
Beans — Full Measure 
Beans—Burpee’s Stringless 
BAKING BEANS 
These are grown to use as dried beans during the 
winter for baking, boiling and other culinary pur¬ 
poses. 
White Marrow—Large oval-shaped, white bean. 
Excellent for baking. 
White Kidney—White, kidney-shaped field bean. 
White Navy—Commercial pea bean. Good baker. 
Red Kidney—Resembles White Kidney but seed 
is red. 
Yellow Eye Field—Excellent baking bean. 
Soldier —Resembles Yellow Eye Field to some 
extent but a universal favorite in northern New 
England because of its wonderful flavor and 
thin skin. 
SHELL BEANS 
Low’s Champion —Pods five inches long, green, 
flat, straight and stringless. May also be used 
as a snap bean. One of the best of its class and 
largely used for canning. 
Mammoth Fava — Similar to the English Broad 
Bean, producing 4 to 6 large, thick Beans in dark 
green pods about 7 or 8 inches long. Rather 
late maturing but very hardy and can be planted 
quite early. 
Dwarf Horticultural —The old standard shell sort. 
Pods five inches long, almost stringless, greenish- 
yellow in color, touched with crimson. 
French Horticultural —Later than the ordinary 
Horticultural but more valuable because it is 
more productive and attractive. Vines grow two 
feet in height, having a tendency to throw out 
runners. Produce immense crops. 
Tendergreen is the most delicious green snap Bean.
